I heard there's been some lag issues online, anyone run into this? If it's an issue I'd rather wait for it to get straightened out before we fire up a league.

My son has gone online on PS3 and said there is definitely a lag issue. He had no complaints on NCAA 11 though.

As usual, I get the "our Internet is messed up"......it's bad when you have to tell a 17 yr. old "if you don't believe me, do a damn Google search on the problem."

I haven't gone online yet. I used to (haven't played much on Madden 2009/10) spend the first 2-3 weeks in practice and against the CPU ironing out my team, playbooks, etc. I haven't played online in a couple of years, is it still the same where people quit games when they're losing by more than a score and the games often hang?

haven't heard too much about the lag but I have heard about how people are absolutely abusing onside kicks because supposedly if you kick it at the right strength you have around 75% chance to recover it. The inconsistency in tackling is my issue. How can I not wrap someone up with AH or Fletcher, but yet the computers dbs can withstand a hit stick from Cooley all day long. I even had freakin Peyton Manning break out of a sack and rush for about 8-10 yards on me yesterday.

Alot of posters have told me online that their McNabb keeps getting hurt during preseason, so i didnt want to take any chances, so i knew i needed to sign a good backup QB for insurance. I looked for Brunell & Garcia in the Free Agents, but i guess they arent in the game.

So I signed Marc Bulger (77 OVR). He got hurt in week 3 and Sexy Rexy has a dislocated elbow, so I may have to sign or trade for a QB to back up McNabb until my other guys get better.

In my first season with a new Madden I never make any moves unless I have to because of an injury. I just like to play it straight up. But there sure are a few quality free agents out there to start. I really had to resist not signing T.O.

I bought it for the PS3 and what I dont like is how much they have taken away from player. I mean they make up that gameflow feature which is nothing more than "ask madden" and then to push that feature they make selecting a play from the playbook cumbersome. Also, maybe I am just missing it but what button is the sprint button??? This is my first madden game for the PS3 so I cant compare it to the older verisons but reasons like this is why it is a shame that the NFL sold its rights to EA...

i'm not home right now to look at the manual, but how do you swim move, disengage from blockers when playing as DL? I couldn't get anything using the right stick...
